ON Semiconductor NL37WZ16US Dual Non-Inverting Buffer

The NL37WZ16US from ON Semiconductor is a high-performance dual non-inverting buffer designed to meet the requirements of low voltage operation while maintaining the capability to interface to a broad range of voltages. This versatile buffer is a perfect fit for applications requiring a buffer or line driver with the added benefit of non-inverting logic.

Constructed with silicon gate CMOS technology, the NL37WZ16US offers significant power and speed improvements over standard CMOS logic while maintaining the low power dissipation of CMOS. It operates at a voltage range of 1.65V to 5.5V, making it highly flexible for use in systems that require both low-voltage and mixed-voltage operation. This feature is particularly useful in battery-operated and portable devices where power efficiency is crucial.

The NL37WZ16US is also characterized for operation from -55°C to 125°C, ensuring reliable performance across a wide range of environmental conditions. This makes it an ideal choice for automotive and industrial applications where extreme temperatures are common.

With a 5.5 ns propagation delay, the device is swift, ensuring that signals are relayed quickly and accurately. This speed is beneficial in high-frequency or time-sensitive applications such as communication systems, computing, and high-speed data processing.

The NL37WZ16US comes in a compact US8 package, which is not only space-saving but also offers reduced inductance for better performance at high frequencies. Its small footprint is ideal for densely packed PCBs where space is at a premium.
